IS THERE ANY HOPE?
NEW AND IMPORTANT OPINIONS
OF PULMONARY EXPERTS.
Can the Universal Consumption be Success
fully Treated.

DR.. Borgeon, a leading French doctor,
has new treatment for consumption!
He gives an enema OF carbonic acid and
sulphuretted hydrogen gases, the latter gas
carrying the CORNER into every part OF the
throat and lungs.
This treatment, too, is directd at effects
the cause remains undisturbed.
What this cause is has been stated by
perhaps the highest pulmonary authority
in the world, i. e., the Brompton Hospital
for Consumptives, in London, Eng.
This malady every year carries of from
one-seventh to one-iifth of the entire popu-
lation OF England!
DR.. Payne, NJ. d., NJ. r. c. p, London, is
authority Tor this statement.
The same or a greater proportion OF
deaths obtains is America.
DIR. Payne also says that one-half the
total number of deaths from all other
causes have seeds of this disease in the
system which only requires some irritant
to develop!
DR.. Hermann Brehmer, an eminent Ger
man authority, says that consumption is
caused by deficient nutrition OF the lungs
by poor blood.
These authorities cannot be disputed.
The medical world recognizes them. The
uric acid is the irritaDs in the blood that
causes the Development OF the seeds, which
DIR. Brehmer says lie dormant in the blood.
Every particle OF blood which passes
through the lungs and heart, also goes
through the kidneys, and if they are in the
least deranged they cannot rid the blood OF
it's killing poison. The thousand little hair
like sewer tubes OF the kidneys very easily
get blocked up and diseased; and when they
do, they corrupt instead OF purifying the
blood. Kidney disease may exist, and yet
no pain occur in that organ, because it is
deficient in nerves OF sensation.
Dip your finger in acid every day and it
soon testers and is destroyed. Send acid
poisoned blood through the lungs every
second and they soon give way.
The Brompton Hospital investigation
showed that so per cent. OF the victims OF
consumption were afflicted with deranged
kidneys, which permitted the uric acid poi
son to remain in the blood and irritate the
lungs. This uric acid is always fighting
every vital organ, and il there be any in
herent weakness in the lungs it inevitably
causes pneumonia, cough and consump-
ton.
The real cause oil pulmonary troubles
being SO authoritively shown to be faulty
even though unsupported action OF the kid
neys, explains why, in order to master the
dreaded consumption, one must rid the
blood OF the uric acid irritant which in
flames and burns up the lung substance.
For this purpose there is moth
ing equal to that great specific,
Warner safe cure. This remedy has now
the favor OF medical men all over the
world purely on it's merits. We have no
doubt that il the kidneys are kept in nat
ural action, consumption and a great many
other diseases, caused by uric-acid, will
not only be cured but will be prevented.
When the kidney is healthy, no albumen
appears in the water, but albumen is found
in the water Of more than hall OF those who
die OF consumption!
This then is the condnion OF things that
always precedes consumption: First,
weakened kidneys; second, retained uric
acid, poisoning the blood; third, the devel
opment OF disease in the lungs by the irri.
tant acids passing through them. Then
there is q little cough in the morning; soon
thick, yellow matter is spit up, followed
by loss OF flesh and strength, with dreadful
night sweats; and when the patient goes to
his school physician for help he is put on
cod liver oil which his stomach weakened
also by uric acid in the blood, cannot
digest. Because there is no pain present in
the kidneys, the patient does not think
they are affected, but the kidney acid is
doing its work every minute, every hour,
day and night, and by-and-by the disease
OF the lungs has advanced until pus is de-
yeloped, then come hemorrhages, and at
last the CLASSY stare which denotes that the
end 10 near!
A postmortem examination OF such
cases shows that the terrible..uric acid hai
completely destroyed the substance OF the
lung.
It il impossible to cure lung disease when
the blood is poisoned with uric acid.
